The Red Sox finished it off with a 16-2 victory over Zack Greinke on Sunday, as Mookie Betts had three homers -- one off Greinke in each of the first two innings -- and Dustin Pedroia had five hits.It was one of those days, Hale told reporters. Weve all been there. Weve all been on the good side. Weve all been on the bad side. Its a tough day. Its a tough day for the pitching staff. Its one of those days you deal with. Thats our ace, our No. 1 guy. They got him. We win as a team, we lose as a team. Today was a tough one.The Mets and Diamondbacks will begin a three-game series Monday at Arizona, a quick turnaround after the Tuesday-Thursday series in Citi Field last week.Collins challenged the Mets effort after they were outscored 17-5 in the series. Arizona trailed in only one of the 27 innings, thats when the Mets scored in the first inning of the series opener.I know one thing -- theres got to be a passion to come and play, Collins told reporters after the Diamondbacks finished the sweep in a 9-0 shutout Thursday behind rookie right-hander Braden Shipley.You owe a responsibility to our fan base, the organization and yourself to respect this game to come out and grind it out. ...

Ray gave up three hits with no walks in seven scoreless innings in that one. He did not walk a batter, a career first in games he had pitched into the seventh.Colon gave up only one run, that coming after Jean Segura stole second base in the third inning, took third on a throwing error by the catcher and scored on Paul Goldschmidts single.Colon is attempting to become the 18th pitcher in major league history and the third this season to beat all 30 teams. The D-backs are the only team he has not beaten in a career that began in 1997. Cubs right-hander John Lackey and Nationals right-handed Max Scherzer did it this season. Colon is 0-1 with a 3.20 ERA in three career starts against the Diamondbacks.Arizona stole 13 bases in 15 attempts in the series, tied for the third-most in the majors in a three-gamer series since the Diamondbacks began play in 1998. Only Miami (17, 2000) and Texas (14, 2010) had more.The Diamondbacks got three quality starts in the Mets series, the first time that had happened since they had four quality starts in a four-game sweep at Philadelphia from June 17-20.Arizona starters gave up 23 runs (17 earned) in 8 2/3 innings against Boston, and left-hander Patrick Corbin was moved to the bullpen after giving up eight runs (four earned) Friday. Corbin (4-12) leads the majors in losses and earned runs (82) in his first full season since undergoing Tommy John surgery that cost him the 2014 season. ' ' '
